Background: The self-report measures used in evaluations of the Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST) program have tended not to detect an improvement in a broad range of suicide counseling skills from pre- to posttraining or among trainees with better skills at pretraining. Aims: The purpose of this study was to develop and validate the Suicide Counseling Skills Inventory (SCSI), which included ten brief counselor-client scenarios and three counselor responses to each scenario. Method: Data were collected from several samples to develop and evaluate the SCSI. Trainee scores were subtracted from criterion expert scores to create discrepancy scores. Results: The SCSI detected an improvement in skills from pre- to posttraining across samples, including among trainees with better skills at pretraining. Internal consistency and test-retest reliability were good. Limitations: The results may not generalize across different training models. Conclusion: Trainee scores were more like expert scores at posttraining. The SCSI may be useful in evaluating suicide counseling competency.

自杀咨询技能清单的验证。

背景：用于评估应用自杀干预技能培训 (ASIST) 计划的自我报告措施往往没有发现从培训前到培训后的广泛自杀咨询技能或培训前技能更好的学员之间的改进。目的：本研究的目的是开发和验证自杀咨询技能清单 (SCSI)，其中包括十个简短的辅导员 - 客户场景和三个辅导员对每个场景的回应。方法：从几个样本中收集数据以开发和评估 SCSI。从标准专家分数中减去受训者分数以产生差异分数。结果： SCSI 检测到样本中从训练前到训练后的技能都有所提高，包括训练前技能更好的受训者。内部一致性和重测信度良好。限制：结果可能无法在不同的训练模型中推广。结论：受训者的分数更像是训练后的专家分数。SCSI 可能有助于评估自杀咨询能力。
